Small Battery Drive II User Manual DePuy Synthes 3
Expected Clinical Benefits
Power Tools systems offer the following benefits to the
patient and health care professionals compared to a
manual approach:
•
Reduced effort to perform a surgery: The surgeon needs
less physical force during the surgical procedure.
•
Improved cutting speed and torque: This contributes to a
better outcome of the surgery compared to surgeries
without power tools.
•
Shorter surgery time: Using a power tool significantly
reduces the surgery time. This means reduced exposure
to anesthesia and less stress to the patient which sup-
ports recovery and wound healing.
•
Reproducible bone cutting and drilling: Bone cutting,
modeling, or drilling can be consistently performed over
time. Implants or bone segments can be fixed more
accurately. This contributes to a more consistent clinical
outcome of the surgery.
•
Potential Adverse Events
As with all major surgical procedures, risks, side effects and
adverse events can occur. While many possible reactions
may occur, some of the most common adverse events
include:
•
Systemic infection
•
Neurovascular injury
•
Thermal necrosis
